Autumn is a conflicted season in the Bay Area. We play at the beach while the snow covers the mountains. T-shirts at the Thanksgiving table (at least some tables). The golden hills turn green. Leaves fall amidst the blooming flowers. There is always a touch of spring here, always something new, always growth. But some leaves still color and then fall.
On the east coast people speak of the “fall colors” and loving the seasons we don’t really have here. We do have seasons and beautiful leaves…we just need to look a little harder. And if we want winter, we will just have to drive to the mountains… 😉

We’ve got Spring and it’s so good. I really dislike Autumn and Winter because I have really dry skin. Spring and Summer mean warmth and hopefully a bit of humidity 🙂
This is a contrast pic of Winter and Spring here in Canberra http://instagram.com/p/SbN0zGRNFD/
Thanks- and we agree, spring and summer are best.
And we like the “spring” photo better!
Thank you 🙂
Pure joy! Your bay area autumn pix are amaaaazing..
Many Thanks!
Lovely shots – thanks for the Pingback. Here in the Ozarks out color is just about all gone.
Thanks! And that is the problem with the fall colors- they don’t last all that long and one good storm blows it all away…
Stunning photos!
Thanks! Trying to get a few more pics in before the serious rains come…
Beautiful colours and shapes!
Thanks! Fun to capture the images before they are gone…
You still have LEAVES? The colours are gorgeous, and it makes me think of our brief autumn…which is now a distant memory… sigh…
Yup, fall/winter just kicked-in, and kicked-in hard…we have 75 and sun in early Nov. The leaves all turned recently…
Gorgeous!
Thanks! Now we mostly have falling rain!
❤ Lovely!! Thanks for sharing.. ~Jen
